1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Oh what is going on? Happy Friday morning to you.

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Appreciate you checking out. The show had some fun tonight.

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: Heard from the Mallard militia, some good tweets, fantastic interaction,

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 1: heard from some old friends, very nice love all that. Okay,

5
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 1: So I started off the show and I really made

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: a discovery tonight, probably for the first time, I just

7
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: finally understood why it happens almost every NFL season where

8
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: the season ends and I'm like, I'm just counting down

9
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: to the next season, you know what I mean. I

10
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 1: can't wait for football to get here. Like, oh, man,

11
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: we got the draft, and that gets me energized for

12
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: the upcoming season. And I'm like, all right, man, look

13
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: at these draft picks for this team, and man, this

14
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: team took a step forward, and man, look out for

15
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: this other squad. And I'm off and running, you know.

16
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: And then I kind of hit a lull. Not that

17
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: I'm not looking forward to the season, it's just the

18
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 1: nature of the stories that I typically hear about, and

19
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: this offseason is no different. If you think about some

20
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: of the stories that are gonna get a lot of

21
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 1: attention right now, most of them won't get you excited

22
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: for the actual season, right, So you think about one

23
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: of the big stories that it broke on Thursday is

24
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: that the executive director of the NFL Players Association, Lloyd Howell,

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: is now the former executive director of the NFLPA. He

26
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: resigned late Thursday night, and so you're gonna hear about that.

27
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: The reason, just so you understand why he resigned, One

28
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: of the reasons is that there was a story that

29
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: came out from ESPN, a report that well, he's still

30
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: a paid consultant on a part time basis for a

31
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: group that is seeking minority ownership in NFL franchise. So

32
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: he's the executive director of the Players Association and meanwhile

33
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: he's a consultant for this group that's trying to be

34
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: a minority owner with an NFL franchise. There's player side

35
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: owner side, player side ownership side. You can't be both.

36
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: So that's why Lloyd Howell the main reason he's stepping down,

37
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I think it's time for me to go.

38
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: So you're gonna hear a bunch about that, probably on

39
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: Thursday or on Friday. I mean, and it's not gonna

40
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: get you fired up for the upcoming season whatsoever. You

41
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: might hear something about Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick. I

42
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: talked about that earlier on the show tonight. I think

43
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: they're both competitive to a fault. But none of that

44
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: is gonna get you excited for the upcoming season. Either.

45
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: You're gonna hear about the Deshaun Watson contract and possible

46
00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: collusion by the NFL and team owners is absolutely collusion.

47
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: You're gonna hear about that. That's not gonna get you

48
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: excited for the upcoming season. So the point is, I

49
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: think there comes a time where we start hearing all

50
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: these stories about, you know, NFL related activities. You're gonna

51
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: hear a bunch about second round players holding out, they

52
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: want guaranteed contracts, fully guaranteed second round contracts. It's not

53
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: gonna get you excited for the upcoming season. You're gonna

54
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: hear about Rashie Rice, the Chiefs wide receiver. He finally

55
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: got He finally received his sentence. He was driving almost

56
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty miles per hour, led to a

57
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: multi car pile up. So he gets thirty days in

58
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: jail and a five year probation sentence. He can serve

59
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: that jail time at any point over these next five years,

60
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna hear about that story, and it's gonna do

61
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: nothing for you in terms of the upcoming season, if anything.

62
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: With Rashie Rice. Now that he's received his punishment, the

63
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: NFL can now punish him further. So I guess that

64
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: relates to real football. How many games he'll be suspended for.

65
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: That has a real layer to it. But a lot

66
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 1: of these stories, I didn't think about it like that,

67
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: and it makes sense, right, Maybe you're like me. The

68
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: NFL schedule is released and I'm like, oh, wow, look

69
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: at all these primetime games and this team scheduling. Whoa

70
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: look at the Lions road schedule. Yikes, that is freaking brutal.

71
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking football, football, football, upcoming season. All that.

72
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: Then the draft roads around, same thing. Wow, look at

73
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 1: this team, man, this team, I don't know what they're thinking.

74
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: What's the impact of this guy on this squad? Yat

75
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: a real football excited for the season, and then there's

76
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: a bunch of this it's contract holdouts, it's this guy

77
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 1: signed for X amount of dollars. Okay, cool, yeah, all right.

78
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: Doesn't do anything for me. And that's why, after looking

79
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: forward to the NFL season for months, I sort of

80
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: hit this lull where I'm not looking forward to the

81
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: season in terms of like counting down the days. I

82
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: just kind of like am floating around, and then it

83
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 1: sneaks up on me and I'm like, holy cow, we

84
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: got the first game of the year is next week.

85
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: How did that happen? This is how it happens. It's

86
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: the nature of the stories that you keep hearing about,

87
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: and I think you just sort of like loose sight

88
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: of the upcoming NFL season. I never thought of it

89
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: like that, but I really do. I think the nature

90
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: of the stories has a lot to do with it.

91
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: A couple stories that caught my attention that actually do

92
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: get me excited for the upcoming season. So Bengals wide

93
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: receiver Jamar Chase, he said something that I see where

94
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: he's coming from, but I disagree with him. He said

95
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: that someone will have a two thousand yard receiving season

96
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: within the next three years. No one's ever done it before.

97
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 1: There hasn't been a two thousand yard receiving season in

98
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: NFL history. Jamar Chase came really close. He had a

99
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: fantastic season last year. He had over seventeen hundred receiving yards,

100
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdown grabs you had. Tyreek Hill came

101
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: pretty close, but I don't think it'll happen. I'll say this,

102
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: if this was a prop bet, would you bet on

103
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: the yes or the no? Over the next three years,

104
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: there will be at least one player that has a

105
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: two thousand yard receiving season. I would bet on the no.

106
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 1: You can't go wrong betting on the no, right right,

107
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but you can't go very wrong betting on

108
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: then you're like no in sports betting. But I would

109
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: take no in this instance because the reason why is

110
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: we always talk about the running back position the same way,

111
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: but not the wide receiver position the way we talk

112
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: about rununning backs. A lot of teams they don't have that,

113
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: like Bell Cow running back. Yeah, there are exceptions like

114
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: the Eagle. Saquon Barkley was amazing last season. Dereck Henry

115
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: was outstanding with the Ravens. Those are the guys. Occasionally

116
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: you'll have the backup spell them here and there, but

117
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: they are by far getting the lion's share of the carries.

118
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley, including the playoffs, he had over four hundred

119
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: rushing attempts last season that is a ton, But more

120
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: times than not with running backs, it's running back by

121
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: committee in today's NFL, Right, we don't see that one

122
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: bell cow lead dog running back who's getting the lion's

123
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: share of the carries. We don't see that, and so

124
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,679
Speaker 1: that's why it's harder for running backs to stack huge numbers.

125
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: It's more a committee approach or a two headed monster approach.

126
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: It's becoming more like that with wide receipt if you

127
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: start looking around the league, I mean it's rare that

128
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: you find a team where it's like, all right, they've

129
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: got this one stud and a bunch of really mediocre

130
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: wide receivers around him. So the stud is just getting fed.

131
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: It's target city, throw, throw, throw his way, right, It's

132
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: typically not like that. Look at Jamar Chase on his team.

133
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: He's got T Higgins, another highly paid, very good wide receiver.

134
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: T Higgins had over nine hundred yards receiving last season.

135
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: If T Higgins isn't in Cincinnati, it's a give and

136
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: take type thing. Yeah, that that might take a little

137
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: production away from Jamar Chase because you can roll coverage

138
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: that way. There are a lot of things defensively you

139
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: can do to now try to limit Jamar's effectiveness. But

140
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: when you have Tea on the field, he's gonna get

141
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: his targets, he's gonna get his catches, he's gonna get

142
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: his yards. He's gonna take some of that production away

143
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: from Jamar Chase. It happens often in the NFL. So

144
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: while we talk about running back by committee, it's oftentimes

145
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 1: wide receiver by committee too. Some of these teams have

146
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: a great wide receiver and they have a tight end

147
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,959
Speaker 1: who takes a lot of targets and a lot of

148
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: production away from the number one wide receiver. So for

149
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: those reasons, I think the odds are better than not

150
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: that we're not going to have a two thousand yard

151
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: receiving season over the next three years. I think it's

152
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: a crazy take. It could certainly happen, but I would

153
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: bet against it happening. I would go no, if that's

154
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: a prop bet that's offered. This is gonna sound silly,

155
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: but honestly, one of the things that gets me, I'm

156
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: not like jumping out of bed like, oh man, I

157
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: can't wait for the NFL season now because of these stories.

158
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: But they at least do more for me to look

159
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: forward to the NFL season. Then a lot of this

160
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: stuff that, oh, second round picks are looking for fully

161
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 1: guaranteed deals. It's like, all right, cool, yeah, it's that

162
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: does nothing to get me energized for the twenty twenty

163
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 1: five season to roll around, you know what I mean.

164
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: So while these stories don't captivate me and fully get

165
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: me jump started, right, they do more than a lot

166
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: of these other stories do. It's the alternate uniforms. Yes,

167
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: I'm an NFL sicco. But Tampa Bay I didn't realize this.

168
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: So the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, they're gonna break out the

169
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: classic white and creamsickle road uniforms this season. It'll be

170
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: the first time in about fifty years they've worn these things. Now,

171
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: I didn't realize because I'm like, wait a minute, correct

172
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: me if I'm dead wrong, But I swear Baker Mayfield

173
00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: and Mike Evans they've worn the creamsickle throwback uniforms recently. Right, Like,

174
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: am I crazy? Am I just dreaming this?

175
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 2: They have?

176
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: But I glossed over it. This is the classic white

177
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:14,719
Speaker 1: and creamsicle road uniforms. Right, So these are mostly white uniforms.

178
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: The numbers are like the creamsicle flavor and all of that.

179
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: So they're gonna wear them against the Jets in their

180
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 1: home opener. This is gonna be the fiftieth season the

181
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so they're gonna wear the white creamsicle

182
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:36,439
Speaker 1: road uniforms against the Jets on September twenty first. Actually, no,

183
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: I get that wrong. I'm dead wrong. That's weird. So

184
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:43,839
Speaker 1: they're wearing the classic white and creamsicle road uniforms for

185
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: their home opener. That's kind of weird, but whatever, that's

186
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: what they're doing. And also the Falcons. Falcons are gonna

187
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: wear throwback uniforms three times this year, so they're rocking

188
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: the red helmets. It's a sharp look. I love the

189
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 1: red helmet throwback uniform for the Falcons. They're gonna wear

190
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: it three primetime games. One of them is, let's see,

191
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: it's a Monday night home game against the Bills in

192
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: week six. They got the Thursday night road game against

193
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: Tampa in week fifteen, and then there's a Monday night

194
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: game against the Rams in week seventeen, so they're gonna

195
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: be rocking the red helmets. Apparently they were three and

196
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: oh rocking the red helmets. Last year they were five

197
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: and nine in their other games. But I'll tell you, man,

198
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: it might sound like wow, Brian Slow Newsday, huh jeez,

199
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: you always get that. It's like, no, man, there's plenty

200
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: of stuff to talk about. But that's I guess that's

201
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: kind of how desperate it gets these these time these

202
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: at these times where a lot of the stories about

203
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: the NFL do nothing to get me excited for the

204
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,559
Speaker 1: upcoming NFL season. And I never really thought about that.

205
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: That just it accumulates. If you're an NFL fan, you're

206
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: paying attention to this stuff, and subconsciously, I think it's

207
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: getting you less and less enthused for the upcoming season,

208
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 1: to the point where I'm just not counting it down.

209
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: I'll see these things on X or whatever. They'll tweet

210
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,079
Speaker 1: it out like hey, ninety five days until kickoff or

211
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: whatever like that, and there just becomes a lull where

212
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I can only hear about second round holdouts,

213
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:29,599
Speaker 1: the executive director of the Players Association resigning. You know,

214
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: I can only hear about this stuff so much before

215
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: I'm just yawning and like say, this does nothing for

216
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: me as far as the upcoming season is concerned. I

217
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 1: never thought about it like that until now, but I'm

218
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: sure there are some of you listening that probably feel

219
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: the exact same way. All Right, eight seven seven ninety

224
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: coming up pretty soon. And also I saw a list.

225
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: I saw a column in terms of overrated and underrated teams,

226
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to throw throw out what some

227
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: of this writer was talking about. I agree with some stuff,

228
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: disagree with other things, but something to keep on your radar.

Speaker 1: Big Ben Mahler. Is it okay? You know? I have

244
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: I love me some dua lipa? And uh is that

245
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: on similar footing? She's a very tall woman, very very

246
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 1: tall woman, that dua lipa over there? But uh, is

247
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: it okay to let you let the people know about

248
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 1: Rick Ross and you? Is that alright? Lorena?

249
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I definitely have a thing for Rick Ross.

250
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: For sure have a thing for Rick Ross.

251
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 5: I could also get it.

252
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: Okay, nice, very nice? I thought, Uh, you meant Jeff

253
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: Ross the roast master.

254
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 5: I don't even know who that is.

255
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: Oh, he's so good at roasting. He's like the main

256
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: guy in every roast beef. But this is a roast,

257
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: you know, when they're just like, you know, like the

258
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: Tom Brady roast and everybody's talking trash about Tom Brady. Yeah,

259
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: they're mean on purpose, and then they say something very

260
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: nice at the very end like it undoes all the

261
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: mean things. But Jeff Ross, he's the roast master. But

262
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: I doubt you have him in the Rick Ross category.

263
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 5: Now let me go look him up.

264
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure Coop knows. Yeah, but very nice. Well,

265
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: love for Rick Ross over there from Lorena. Very good,

266
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: very good. Okay, so we got Coop scoops coming up,

267
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: and just about five minutes from now, I'll get to

268
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: the militia here in a second, if anybody wants to

269
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: check in. But I saw this list on the Athletic

270
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: Mike Jones put this list together of who he thinks

271
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: are four overrated NFL teams this season and who are

272
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: four underrated teams in the NFL this season. So his

273
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: list for the overrated teams, he has the Bills, the

274
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers, the Lions, and the Bengals. Now I

275
00:16:55,840 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: would disagree with his Bengals selection there for these reasons.

276
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: Oh wow, we got a lot of the Oh holy cow,

277
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 1: the militias are lining up. We got to power through

278
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: some of these in a second. Okay, I'll be quick.

279
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: I disagree with him putting the Bengals on the underrated

280
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: list just because, listen, people struggle with this all the time.

281
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: Like to be a candidate to be overrated, people have

282
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: to be talking you up. They have to be waxing, poetic.

283
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,719
Speaker 1: Who is saying, hey, look out for the Bengals man

284
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: their sucky defense and whatever they're doing with Shamar Stewart

285
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: over there, not signing their first round rookie, who was

286
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: talking about maybe going back to school at Texas A

287
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: and M look out for the Bengals. Who's saying that.

288
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: No one is saying that. So they're not a good

289
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: candidate to be overrated. Now the other three are good candidates. Bills, Niners, Lions.

290
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: I hear a lot of positive comments about those teams.

291
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 6: Now.

292
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: The Lions have been doubted a decent amount. Their road

293
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 1: schedule is brutal. Their schedule overall is really really tough.

294
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: So I have heard some some skeptics, but there are believers.

295
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: I hear a lot of positivity about the Niners because

296
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: they have a cake schedule, and of course a lot

297
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: of positivity about the Bills. Of those teams, who do

298
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: you think is going to turn out to be overrated?

299
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: I would say it's the Niners. The Niners have a

300
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 1: lot of turnover, They lost a lot of defensive players,

301
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: a lot of contributors. You know, Trent Williams, he only

302
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: played ten games last season. They're left tackle. Christian mccaffery's

303
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 1: supposed to be back and looking great, but he only

304
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: played four games last season. Significant injury. When you're talking

305
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: like achilles tendonitis, that's a serious deal. So I just

306
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: don't I don't believe in the Niners. They have a

307
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: cake schedule, should win a bunch of games, but I

308
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 1: think they're going to be fools gold. I just I

309
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: don't think the roster is nearly as good as it

310
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: was their GM. John Lynch said, hey, we had to

311
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: get younger and a little bit cheaper. Yeah, because you're

312
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: paying Brock Purty huge money, Like they gotta do that. Sure,

313
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: I just don't think Brock Purdy is a guy who

314
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: can compensate for a weaker roster. It's a good quarterback,

315
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: but he's not a dude that's just going to say, hey,

316
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: we've got like a second rate right tackle, or we've

317
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: got a you know, a second rate wide receiver, cheaper here,

318
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,959
Speaker 1: cheaper there. That's okay, I got you. I don't think

319
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: he's that guy.

320
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 6: Now.

321
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: The underrated portion of this and I'll get to the

322
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: militia real fast. Underrated. He's got Chargers, Cowboys, Cardinals, Jags.

323
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 1: He says, hey, Leam Cohen's over that. Maybe he can

324
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 1: do for Trevor Lawrence what he did for Baker Mayfield

325
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: and Tampa. That's the reasoning they went out and got

326
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: Travis Hunter. You know, I like the Cardinals on this list. Myself,

327
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: I've gone out. It's my curveball prediction. I have the

328
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: Cardinals winning the NFC West. I just think off defensively,

329
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: pretty decent offensive line, Marvin Harrison Junior if he takes

330
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: a big step forward, love Trey McBride, fantastic tight end.

331
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is a good quarterback. I think Kyler Murray is.

332
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: You tell me Brock Purty is way better than Kyler Murray,

333
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: and I'll say, no, you're wrong. I think he's way

334
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: better than Kyler Murray. I think they're very, very comparable.

335
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: You give Kyler Murray what Brock Purty enjoyed supporting cast

336
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: Wise the last two seasons. Kyler Murray is putting up

337
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: big numbers. You play Brock Purty with Arizona the last

338
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: couple of years. I don't think Brock party is putting

339
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: up the same numbers. I just don't. I think Kyler

340
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: Murray's good enough. And I think what they've done defensively,

341
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: like some of their draft picks, some of their free

342
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: agent moves. Jonathan Gannon, you know, doubled their win total

343
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 1: over the last two years. I think the Cardinals arrow

344
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 1: is still pointed up. I think that's a good selection. Underrated.

345
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: All right, let me go to the phones. Here, the

346
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: militia is lining up. I think we've got Chris in Massachusetts.

347
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: All Star take real quick, Chris, you're on Fox Sports Radio.

348
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 1: What's up?

349
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 6: Yeah?

350
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 7: And I'll be fat because I know you got a lineup.

351
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 6: But I loved Brian.

352
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 8: I love your takes now as great as Ben's just kidding,

353
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 8: but I do love your takes. But the cake earlier

354
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 8: when I got in the car about the All Star

355
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 8: Game with people dropping out, But when.

356
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 7: I was young, a young boy. I'm fifty five, so

357
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 7: we love the All Star Game. The reason I love

358
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 7: the All Tar Game because you never saw the nl

359
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 7: NL teams and that was what made it special. Yeah,

360
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,400
Speaker 7: And what was great Gary Queen used to have these

361
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 7: helmets in their ice cream and their Sunday I'd always

362
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 7: go out to Marc and Brewers, the Cincinnati Reds, the

363
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,159
Speaker 7: Red Sox of course, and it.

364
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 8: Just it's nostalgia for me.

365
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 9: Now it's not there.

366
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 8: And lastly, Brock Colet, who was a Red Sox in

367
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 8: utility infielder, made the All Star Game a few years

368
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 8: back and that was the joke of the town here.

369
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 10: Wow.

370
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, good call, Chris, good stuff. Appreciate that. Yeah,

371
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: I remember the old school, like ice cream helmets. I

372
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 1: loved collecting those things for sure. And you're right, it's

373
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 1: changed so much. It used to be really really special

374
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: because this was before interleague play. This was the only

375
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,479
Speaker 1: time you would see outside of the World Series al

376
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: players play against NL players and listen, it's changed. I

377
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: like interleague play, but that's one of the drawbacks is

378
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 1: you don't have that special All Star feel anymore. And

379
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: a lot of things have changed. You've got a million

380
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: channels now, you had like three way back in the day,

381
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 1: and so for baseball to be on it was a

382
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: big deal. Things have changed, you know, So it happens.

383
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 1: Let me go to Mark in the North End. Okay, interesting, Mark,

384
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 1: you're on Fox Sports Radio. What's going on?

385
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 6: Hey, Brian how's it going good, Bud? So earlier you

386
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 6: mentioned in your last segment how as soon as football

387
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 6: and you're doing the countdown for the next season to start, right,

388
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 6: Uh huh?

389
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 11: Okay?

390
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 6: Why is it that you know, all these people that

391
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 6: loved football so much and miss the fellow as soon

392
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 6: as it's over. They can't get enough football? The UFL

393
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 6: stops and there's nobody at these games, like not like

394
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 6: the standard, like almost completely empty. Where are all the

395
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 6: people that love football so much?

396
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: Well, they love the NFL, you know, they love college football.

397
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: They don't love the UFL. That would be like saying

398
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: for anyone who loves music like you love music, and uh,

399
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: what's what?

400
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 2: What?

401
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: What genre of music do you like the most?

402
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 9: Mark?

403
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 6: I have a wide genre actually, okay, I don't like

404
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 6: it's like heavy metal pretty much.

405
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: Oh you're killing me, Mark, that's my go to it. Okay, Well,

406
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: what are you no? It's okay, it's all right. We

407
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: still cater to the non heavy metal folk. We just

408
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: judge them behind their back, Loren. That's what we do.

409
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: That's what we do. What Mark was Okay, so you're

410
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: a rock guy. What are you into?

411
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 6: I mean, I love I love you know what today's

412
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 6: music sucks. To be honest with you, I'm a seventy

413
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 6: eight nineties guy.

414
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: Okay, in rock or what like. It's a wide run.

415
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 6: I like all these disco, hip hop rap okay, but

416
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:10,880
Speaker 6: of those years not now?

417
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: All right, fair enough, that's fine, Okay. So imagine it

418
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: like you're this music lover, you know what I mean,

419
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: and you can see a legendary rapper, you can see whatever,

420
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: the main dude from that era, and you're in concert,

421
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you could see right

422
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: after that guy one of the worst rappers in town.

423
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: It's not the same thing. It's not the same product.

424
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: Like the NFL is the great rapper, the UFL is

425
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: the sad like disaster of an up and coming rapper.

426
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 1: There's a clear difference. It's not just yeah, I hear

427
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: what you're saying. It's not just where football junkies put

428
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 1: anything in front of us and we're gonna eat it up.

429
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: It's not like that.

430
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 6: With that being said, how long do you give the UFL?

431
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 10: Well?

432
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: I hope it sticks around, man. I love this stories.

433
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: I love that those dudes are trying to, you know,

434
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: keep their dream alive and maybe make it to the NFL.

435
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 6: But to get to the NFL, yeah, they they had.

436
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 1: Like the Lions Kicker made it, you know. There They're

437
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: gonna be a couple of guys here and there that

438
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: make it to the NFL. But it's not going to

439
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: be this viable money making product. And it always comes

440
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: back to that. So welfully they can still make it,

441
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: but the days might be numbered. Man, gotta make a buck.

442
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 6: The NFL doesn't have a hand in that, do they.

443
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not positive. I don't think so, but

444
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: I can't tell you for sure, Mark, I'm not positive.

445
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,719
Speaker 6: About them, the XFL and the USFL.

446
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 1: Right like, if it was say like the g League

447
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: of the NBA, if this was an NFL product, then yeah,

448
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: it's going to be around. If they want it to

449
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 1: be sort of like a feeder or a minor league,

450
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 1: then yeah it would. It'd have a chance.

451
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 6: But one that asked the question because I lean forwards

452
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 6: more the NHL being the greatest game on Earth. But

453
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 6: that's just my opinion.

454
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 1: What All Star or just game in general.

455
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 6: The NHL just hockey in general, okay, country, And I

456
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 6: don't think nothing beats playoff hockey. Anything beats playoff hockey.

457
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 1: Well, hey, man, if that's your cup of tea, that's fine.

458
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 1: I mean you don't like heavy metal, Mark, so your

Speaker 10: Uh, So we're gonna start off in the theaters like

486
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 10: we always do. And uh, a couple of movies out

487
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 10: this weekend of note. The first is and then stop

488
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 10: me if you've heard of this movie before. Okay, it

489
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 10: is called I Know What You Did Last Summer?

490
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, another one of these things.

491
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 5: That's right now.

492
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 10: I thought it was a reboot when I initially saw

493
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 10: like the uh, the posters for it.

494
00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 6: Huh.

495
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 10: But then i'm I saw the I went to the

496
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 10: movie theater today and I went and saw. I went

497
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 10: saw twenty eight years later, the zombie movie.

498
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: How was that?

499
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 5: I liked it? It was good.

500
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 10: Okay, But I saw a trailer for I Know What

501
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 10: You Did Last Summer and I saw Jennifer love Hewitt

502
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 10: in the trailer and she was in the original.

503
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 5: So I don't think it is a reboot.

504
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:24,359
Speaker 3: I mean, like.

505
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 10: It seemed like they would like well then, right, I guess.

506
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 10: I guess, but it's later on in life. Yeah, but

507
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 10: I don't know they're calling it a reboot. It's it's

508
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 10: not called it not you did last summer too. It's

509
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 10: just it's got the same title. But I don't know,

510
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 10: it looks it's one of those movies where as of

511
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 10: right now, the critics have not enjoyed it, but audiences,

512
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 10: but audiences have. It's got thirty seven percent score from

513
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 10: the critics, seventy two percent from audience. So you know,

514
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 10: it's one of those slasher movies where it's just it's

515
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 10: just fun. It's a you know, it's it's not cinema.

516
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: Who doesn't love a good slasher movie exactly.

517
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:07,800

610
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,720

615
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:50,520

658
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: So we'll pay that off, we'll get to the militia,

659

Speaker 1: we'll fire through as many calls as we can. And also,

660
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: this is not going to become a growing trend. I

661
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: don't believe very quick one minute sports take from yours

662
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,320

Speaker 1: Big Ben Malor here on Fox Sports Radio. I think

670
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: it'd be funny if, like Lorena and I are in

671
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: a fist fight for dua lipa. You know, that would

672
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: be a be a funny video that Cooper.

673
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:41,399
Speaker 5: I think we'd have to fight.

674
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: Brian, were you just saying you got this first? Oh really? Okay, okay,

675
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: fair enough? That'd be an interesting, uh you know video

676
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: from Coop just hey, I saw these two fist fighting

677
00:36:55,640 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: each other for the right to Yeah, okay, I'm gonna

678
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: get to the militia here very quick. I promise you

679
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: a one minute take. So this is it. Put the

680
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: start the clock right now. So a Chargers wide receiver

681
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: Mike Williams he's decided to retire after eight NFL seasons.

682
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 1: He walks away at the age of thirty, and listen,

683
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: this isn't I think what we like a scarecrow topic.

684
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: I'm not creating something just to you know, go back

685
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: and forth with air or something. But this happens quite

686
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: a bit. I don't think it's happening right now. But

687
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,479
Speaker 1: when someone leaves the game at like thirty years old,

688
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 1: a lot of people be like, is this gonna be

689
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: the norm? Is this the way it always goes? No, man, like,

690
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: this is not gonna become the norm. There're gonna be

691
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 1: some players that retire early. Mike Williams was banged up

692
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 1: quite a bit, and there're gonna be some players here

693
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: and there that retire the game early but are from

694
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: the game early. But I don't think this is gonna

695
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 1: be a thing where players like in Droves are gonna

696
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: be retiring early. I think it's just just a casual case,

697
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: spike case thing. Some dudes walk away early, and more

698
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 1: power to him, make your money. Depending on your position,

699
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 1: you walk away good quality of life for better quality

700
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: of life, not as many injuries. So I hope it

701
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 1: works out for Mike Williams but steps away after eight years.

702
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 1: All right, that was quick, about a minute right there

703
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 1: on the nose. Let's go fast. Let's go to Ned

704
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee. I got to take on Lillard here, only

705
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes here, Ned, But try to go

706
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 1: quickly for us, if you would, Bud.

707
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:30,840
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, can you break down Damian Lellard's new contract

708
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 6: going back to Portland from Milwaukee.

709
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just three years, forty two million bucks for

710
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 1: the Blazers, and I believe that offsets the money that

711
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 1: he's due from the Bucks, like they wouldn't be on

712
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: the hook for that much money. They're on the hook

713
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 1: for the rest of it though, But.

714
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 9: He does have to sit out the first year due

715
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 9: to the injury.

716
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 1: Though, right, Yeah, yeah, he won't be active for that

717
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: first year rehab it.

718
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 6: So technically speaking, you're getting paid by both both team.

719
00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,800
Speaker 1: Still, no, I think it offset I okay, Yeah. What

720
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: I read like a couple of weeks ago was that

721
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: the Bucks wouldn't have to pay what he earns in

722
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: another contract from another team. So I believe they're off

723
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 1: the hook for forty two million bucks of the whatever

724
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: like one thirteen that they owe them. I believe that's

725
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: the way it breaks down. Yeah.

726
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 9: Wow, that's crazy. Oh thanks, thanks a lot for breaking

727
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 9: that down for me.

728
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: You got it, ned, good stuff, man. We got Rob

729
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 1: in Maine. He's on Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Rob?

730
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,359
Speaker 9: Hey, Yeah, I'm talking about here. You're talking earlier about

731
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 9: the two thousand yards receiver. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not

732
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 9: going to happen. I got billions of dollars on that one, brother,

733
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 9: Because the NFL keeps shortening the field, They're going to

734
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 9: be doing half court here for too long. You know

735
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 9: what I mean.

736
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: You know that's a good point, right, the kickoffs, the

737
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,879
Speaker 1: touchbacks come back to the thirty five now, so yeah,

738
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: I mean that adds up. The little thing's add up.

739
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 9: Sure, Oh sure, fifteen over seventeen games not gonna happen,

740
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 9: all Yeah.

741
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,759

Speaker 11: It's been since you were on last it started. Dude,

750
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,920

751
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 11: here with the U haul, we could have picked up garbage.

752
